Love the breakfast there. The sweets are yummy. My favorite is the fried plantain. I have never had bad service.

We visited Cristo Rey this morning and had an amazing experience. I ordered the chilaquiles with the carne asada special and it was incredible. The meat was tender, the chilaquiles were perfectly crunchy, and the sauce was full of flavor. My husband had the pork chop breakfast and he thoroughly enjoyed every bite. Everything was perfect and Victor, our waiter, was so friendly and helpful. He took the time to tell us about their daily offerings, which we really appreciated. We cannot wait to come back. In fact, we will be back tomorrow for their carnitas and chicharrones! I'm adding some recent photos of the menu as well. There's also a great assortment of delicious Mexican pastries near the register. read more

7-28-26 I usually don't write negative reviews on a restaurant but today was the day I decided to write this review based on customer service and the quality of the food. I called in ahead and when I arrived, the staff did not have my order at all. Then when I do receive my food after a while, they give me my medium barbecue platter with just ribs and sausage. After them fixing my platter, I get home and notice that the brisket is mostly fat with some pieces of meat. I've been coming to this place for a while and I've noticed the quality has gone down somewhat, and it is a bit disappointing because I enjoy supporting small businesses. I don't know if I'm tripping or if y'all are having the same experience as I am. read more

The $45 bbq platter is well worth it! Pretty much an unbeatable deal. 12 wings of your choice, smoked not fried. 1 lb of brisket, 1 lb of sausage and a half rack of ribs. To my surprise, came with potato salad, rice and charro beans. This can easily feed a family of 4 and still have leftovers. My new go to when I want bbq. Thumbs up!! read more

Steve and I are always on the lookout for good BBQ and we found an amazing place close to us. From the warm homemade salsa to the potato salad this place is a must try if you live in the area. We ordered the small family meal which consist of 1/2# brisket, ribs, sausage and wings with 2 sides. Steve and I are always on the lookout for good BBQ and we found an amazing place close to us.

Muy Delicioso¡ OMG The food was so good. I wanted to lie and tell everybody it wasn't good, so I could keep it all to myself. It's rare that you go to a restaurant where everything is good & a great value. I expect the bbq to be good & the sides to be throw aways items that were bundled in, but the barbecue was delicious and with that being said, the sides were even better The Mexican style ranch beans were some of the best I've ever had and the same can be said about the potato salad. I normally don't eat potato salad unless my grandma makes it, but it was tasty & well seasoned. This might be an every weekend kind of restaurant Will definitely return, probably next weekend read more

I personally didn't care for this place. Quality was not there that I prefer. I would not recommend this place but that's just my opinion. No offense, plus it is too overpriced for their selection and quality read more

Great pastries and yummy food. The Gorditas are my fav! Very affordable. I feel like this place is underrated! Check them out!

$1.35 mini taco special on Tuesdays still hits the spot! Make sure to try their churro cheesecakes as well! read more

Not impressed with their pupusas, very little meat inside and a lot of dough (masa). Very disappointing. For the price, it should of had more meat, not just one once of meat all in the middle. Might as well make them quarter size. read more

They are always friendly and know the menu. I haven't had a bad experience yet. The aguas are excellent. read more

We've only been three times but everything I've tried from here has been delicious and the service been great!

Great little restaurant! Ordered chorizo/eggs plate which came with beans and papas and also had barbacoa tacos. Fantastic service and loved the food! They also have pan dulce! Can't wait to try the BBQ and smoked wings! We will be back! read more

Such a hidden gem! Bakery is absolutely amazing! Tacos are on point! Overall the food is delicious. And the people are great!

Absolutely Delicious!!! Mango Habanera wings were fresh and the taste was so good! Great hospitality and comfortable environment... I will be back read more

Amazing food, it did take a bit to get to the table but it was 100% worth the wait. The restaurant is small, but it gives a feeling of being in someone's home. We're looking forward to going again and trying new meals. Workers are super friendly and humble, I would go back just to speak with who I believe was the head of the kitchen super friendly man. (They speak Spanish and English). For now we recommend their plate of steak tacos, gorditas, brisket sandwich, and their baby back ribs. Also, their bread was absolutely delicious, I think we got a fresh batch because the texture was perfect with each different one chosen. read more

this food is garbage. i got 4 tacos $2.60 each, there was 7 lil pieces of cilantro. I didn't even know limes could be dry. Got a ground beef tostada *rme - no flavor. I've literally never had Mexican food with no flavor. didn't even know it was possible. read more

Cristo Rey is a very cute restaurant and bakery with a very homey feel- literally, it looks like a home! the converted house has a full kitchen in the back, with both indoor and outdoor seating areas. they smoke and roast outdoors, and they do the same with corn (elote) too! i've been twice so far and my favorites have been the caldo de res and birria tacos. i ordered the whole chicken today, it came with rice, beans, and tortillas for $15.99 and could easily feed two. the sides were all delicious but i found the chicken bland (although it was very warm and fresh). they've got beautiful display cases of mexican breads like conchas, buñuelos and galletas, and i drool at the sight every time i'm there! they also have home made aguas frescas that ill be trying next time! they serve breakfast lunch and dinner. always friendly whether ordering by phone or in person! read more

Don't miss out on this hidden treasure! Had a bbq special. 2 of us had lunch and enough for dinner. $33. Excellent bbq. Very nice selection of pastries too. read more

I think it's safe to say that this is the best place to eat in Dickinson. With the only downside being that the location is a bit on the smaller side, it makes up for it in powerful and delicious flavors. It has a lot of natural light coming into the location so I love the indoor vibes even more. Service from the employees is top notch. You can tell that these employees take pride in making delicious food for their customers. 5 out of 5 stars from me, I would definitely recommend! read more

Amazing food and service the women in the back that cook they're the best always try to catch them when they punch in

This is a great place for tacos and papusas, as well as a host of other great food. The prices are great. I had papusas, street tacos and sweet bread and all were fantastic. I had it delivered via Door Dash and it was delivered in the time frame promised and the food was fantastic. I definitely recommend this business. read more

Awesome new spot in Dickinson! My hubby and I both got the street tacos meal with rice and charro beans. Everything was super fresh and so delish. Good portion sizes and from what my husband said, the owner was super friendly. He gave us a Honduran dish to try, can't quite remember the name, but it was a homemade tortilla filled with egg, fajita beef, avocado and some sort of crema.....sooo good! The charro beans were some of the best Ive had in the area, and the flour tortilla was homemade and amazing. This will definitely turn into a regular spot for us. Can't wait to try their bakery items next time we visit. Love supporting our small businesses in the area read more

Tried them twice and I was disappointed both times. Will not be going back. Food was cold read more

So I've tried this restaurant multiple times. And it's either amazing or complete utter trash. First time I came here it was for taco Tuesday, where they have their special $1.25 per mini taco. The second time I came here I got the pupusa's and they were awesome. I got a couple pastries as well. My most recent visit however it was not so pleasant. A friend of mine had just moved to the area and I wanted to show her a local place to get Hispanic pastries as well as food. I got the street taco plate, with Pastor. The meat was so dry and under seasoned. Barely any onions or cilantro and only one little tiny cup of salsa. I'm not even sure if the meat was Pastor, it looked and tasted like on season ground beef. I also ordered one extra pupusa on the side it was delicious. But I was given a tiny amount of cabbage and sauce... my friend got the Birria taco plate and wasn't impressed. It was just unfortunate that I suggested the place for dinner and it was sorta a let down. read more

Horrible service and horrible food! We went there for lunch, arrived around 11:40, took forever to even place our order. We had to keep asking if it was ready, some of our party finally had to leave. Still didn't have any food by 12:25. Two of the 6 orders came out, another came out wrong, one was never even made until asked. So some got to eat others not, so nice to go back to work starving! They said staff didn't show up, and I would have understood more if we weren't the o Lu ones in there!!!!! There was a party of two and they had already ordered. Save your time and money on food you will actually get. read more

I used to like eating at this place up until a few days ago. It's was 92 degrees outside, and it felt exactly the same inside. I asked the young lady if they could at least turn a fan on or turn the ac down, nothing! I was starving. I order enchiladas with chicken, rice and beans. The tortillas were not soft at all. They were a little on the hard side. The chicken was dry. This was an overall horrible experience. By the time I ate what very little I did eat, I was basically drenched in perspiration. read more

Really good authentic fajita tacos and lemonade. I keep meaning to stop by again it's just a little out of my way. Their conchas were good as well. I ordered my food Togo and the Cashier was very friendly and brought my food to my car since I had my crying baby with me and it was raining. read more

The restaraunt has no public restrooms, the salsa is not salsa it is a weird spiced enchilada sauce. They did not provide us utensils and the place charges $1 for cup of water. The food all had weird spices and overall left us feeling ill as we left. I would not recommend this one at all. Also if you have a glutton allergy there are no options. read more

Best for everything! Everything is amazing and delicious. Anything you're craving they got it. And I promise it's all worth it!

By far the best Central American food in all of League City. I heavily criticized this restaurant because of how on point you have to be with Central American foods and boy do they get it on the money! read more

Really yummy and great service! We got the breakfast plate and pastries pictured plus a plate of the quesitacos all for $23. Very clean and everyone had their masks on too :) read more

Very friendly and a clean facility! The food was delicious and good quality. I recommend the fajita burrito!

I was so excited to try some local Salvadoran food as it's hard to come by on this side of town. I ordered pupusas and yuca with chicharrón. A little bit of the curtido came with the yuca and it was dry and flavorless. I can get better pre-made flavorful curtido at HEB - that's sad. The yuca was not crispy -will probably spray with a little oil and set in the air fryer. The chicharrón was mainly pieces of fat - not much meat. And the pupusas were dry and didn't have enough filling. Having seen previous mixed reviews, I was hoping it would be a good experience anyway and could become a staple but I was definitely let down. Will not order from here again. read more

Great pastry selection and bakery! Stopped for a quick lunch and left with bags of cookies and desserts!
